Training activity information
Details
Receive a range of H&I samples and enter onto laboratory IMS
Type
Entrustable training activity (ETA)
Evidence requirements
Evidence the activity has been undertaken by the trainee repeatedly, consistently, and effectively over time, in a range of situations. This may include occasions where the trainee has not successfully achieved the outcome of the activity themselves. For example, because it was not appropriate to undertake the task in the circumstances or the trainees recognised their own limitations and sought help or advice to ensure the activity reached an appropriate conclusion.
Reflection at multiple timepoints on the trainee learning journey for this activity.

- Clinical indications for solid organ and haemopoietic stem cell transplantation and blood transfusion and HLA disease association and pharmacogenomic reactions
- Patient centred care and support, including clinical urgency, previous testing performed and care of samples
- Minimum data set required for identification of laboratory samples
- Factors affecting sample integrity and appropriate corrective action
- Local procedures
- Local and national legislation, protocols and guidelines for information governance
- Infection control
